Frequently Asked Questions

DO YOU ONLY SUPPORT UNMEDICATED BIRTHS?

I support all types of birth, whether it is at home, a hospital, in a birth center, medicated, or unmedicated!

DO YOU PERFORM ANY PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS?

I am not a medical professional, so this is out of my scope of services! I cannot perform any physical examinations, such as cervical checks & fetal monitoring - I can provide you evidence-based research on them though. I'm more than happy to assist with things like figuring out your blood pressure cuff or breastpump.

HOW WILL HIRING YOU AFFECT MY PARTNER’S ROLE DURING THE BIRTH?

I support both the birthing person & their partner as a doula. My services will compliment your partner’s support while in labor, and I can provide them with information on how to best support you when I am not present! We work as a team, & I can assure you that your partner is going to be very involved in your birthing experience, especially if you hire a doula.

ARE YOU ABLE TO DO PAYMENT PLANS FOR YOUR SERVICES?

Absolutely. I never want the price of services to be a reason an expecting family goes without doula support - everyone deserves a doula in their corner! I am happy to break payments up monthly, biweekly, or however else works for us. I also offer a sliding scale rate for my Essentials package. During our consultation, please mention if you have a financial situation that would benefit from payments. When I write up our contract, I can add in our agreement so that there is so confusion moving forward, & no worries on your part!
